I set in MP HID remote, everything works well apart from numpad keys. Indeed, i must be in a UPPER CASE mode to make them work.
Any idea?

Thanks but ths thread does not bring me a solution.
Since yesterday, i have new issue with virtual keyboard. Indeed, i have the letter "d" wich is displayed after pressing a numpad key. When i open the virtual keyboard, a "d" letter is appeared first and after a key pressed.
Strange!?

trying to get gyration working

i just stumbled on this thread after some hours trying to get my new gyration remote working with MP 1.0. I have read the whole thread and I'm afraid I can't work it out , even to the level of what apps I need.

please can someone post an "idiot guide" exactly which apps/ plugins (in addition to MP) are needed, and what to set in MP configuration where. I installed latest eventghost but I have no clue how to configure it.
and/or please can someone post working config files for all the relevant pieces.

sorry for this but it seems really non-intuitive...
thanks
Ian

Start to enable general HID remote and tells us what it works?
For me everything works and one day numpad don't work anymore because i am in a lower case mode. If i switch to upper cas it works

meaning general HID as remote in media portal - thats all? thanks thats a start honestly even that is not obvious! I am a trained engineer I am used to reading and writing detailed documentation but this is a real detective story.

thanks again. once I have this all working I will write it in one posting for others...

so with that now:
transport (play/pause etc) controls all work
left/right/up/down/ok/go back work
info "i" does nothing
"tv" icon, "guide" icon and " the green button" launch microsoft media center !!
volume up/down , mute, channel up/down work.
numpad works
clear = go back (would like to be something else)
enter = ok (would like to be something else)
setup/dvd/input do nothing
red/green/yellow/blue/teletext do nothing

Also I had keyboard input plugin in media portal enabled (from a another, IR remote control) that caused some trouble , that had to be disabled.

do I need this MediaPortal - Mediacenter - - Message Plugin ?

thanks
Ian

The layout of remotes does vary from one model/brand to another. I too find that some layouts are better than others. Generally, I prefer the buttons that I use most-frequently to be positioned near the center of the remote, which is not the case with that particular Dell remote. :( Battery life is often a problem. A remote that I...

This may or may not be a pause, after all, this is a playlist, it can constantly change, I don’t very well understand the mechanism of working with playlists in online broadcasts. Well, here you need to look at what is happening in the Media Portal player. And find someone who understands how it works.
